Music Style Artistic Pop

Artist History Macster's musical career began at the age of 7, when an opportune rendition of a TV jingle on his grandfather's piano was enough for his father to send him to piano and guitar lessons. Following some shining classical achievements and a few early band demos, it was off to college to study a Music Diploma....this later being dropped in favour of gigs and local fan/press interest with Haze, a Colchester band formed with fellow college musicians. Interest from an Island Records subsidiary Label who watched them at The Pop Club (Kentish Town, London) and Essex University (Colchester) was not enough to stop the band splitting up through personal differences, quitting their Colchester dole-pad and a not insubstantial local following. Over the next few years there were some promising meetings/collaborations with producers, songwriters and labels; including a production deal; writing/session work; and a soundtrack performance / appearance in the film "Fast Food", in which Macster played a singing punk. No record deals though, and Macster bought a 1-way ticket to Bangkok in Feb 2000. A 5 month trip around S/E Asia provided excellent inspiration; and the year that followed travelling around Australia was to end in a production deal in Perth, with Producer Ben Glatzer. Macster and Ben formed a good working relationship and produced Libertine and Russian Roulette. Macster returned to Sydney for mastering with one of Ben's colleagues, Australian mastering guru Don Bartley. A record deal was offered by Shanachie Records (Sydney), and there were many offers to see the live act by such major Labels as EMI. But, no live act being in the same hemisphere as Macster, and his Visa having expired, it was back to the UK. There are new songs in the pipeline and Macster is off to India shortly for an inspiration fix. This site is due to be launched soon with new songs, photography and artwork; but there has already been some interest from London producers and, most recently, from Independent and International Record Labels.
